We are a husband and wife team, married for over 45 years and working together for over 20 years. We specialize in creating transformational couples workshops, and extraordinary training programs for relationship therapists, coaches, and organizations.

We teach a unique integration of the philosophy of Martin Buber, Imago Relationship Theory (which we presented in many countries for 15 years), the Positive Change relational skills of Appreciative Inquiry, the peer co-counseling methods of Re-evaluation Counseling, Interpersonal Neurobiology, our experience from our own relationship, and our Judaic heritage.

We offer workshops and private intensive sessions for couples, and trainings for therapists and coaches, in Florida and California, Canada, Austria, France, Israel, Switzerland, and other countries. We are also available to present our workshops and trainings in other locations. We both love to travel, and we speak French, German, Hebrew, Spanish and Yiddish.

An award-winning documentary was created about our life, mission and work with couples and is available along with seven audio programs on relationships.

We bring a relational skill set and relational technologies to all systems, from the smallest (a couple), to groups, companies and organizations.  We assist people in developing their relational intelligence towards relational maturity. The skills and technologies we teach are universal and span different cultures, races, and social backgrounds.

Our mission is to create a tipping point in consciousness about the power of connection by transforming 90 million relationships throughout the world. Our vision is a relationally mature planet where not only couples, but organizations, and even nations “cross the bridge” and truly relate to each other.

Warmest regards,

Hedy and Yumi Schleifer
